    Need filter and pump advice

    Thanks for img code tip. Hopefully when I get it working I will be able to post sparkling clean pictures of it. Yes we do have the tiles for it. There were about 9 extra boxes of tiles in the garage when we moved in.

    Need filter and pump advice

    I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to post and ask some questions. We just purchased our first home last October. The home had an infinity pool but needs some work. The home was empty for almost 2 years. The previous owner removed the filter and pump control system. So I'm...
